The Irish regional BIC’s (Business Innovation Centres) have been really fantastic in supporting the team at VERI to grow and strive over the past 4 years.
SEBIC supported the team in the win of the EI’s Female Competitive Start Fund that saw Veri’s first investment. Then, CorkBIC came on board the following year, inviting Veri founder Ann-Marie McSorley to the Entrepreneur Experience. Led by Cork Bic and Pete Smith from Broadlake, this is  an amazing accelerator where 24 Start up’s get 24 hours one to one with seasoned entrepreneurs who have seen it all and share their war stories. The objective being to help these start up’s scale and grow.
2 years on with €500,000 investment and a team of 10 across Ireland and UK/NI market, our Veri founder Ann-Marie Mc Sorley has been invited by Cork BIC to join the panel for the international EBAN & CorkBIC Changing Worlds event & panel discussion on June 11.
